Thank You Tonga from the bottom of our hearts
Tonga with a population of 219,000 has given assistance of US$60,000 (FJ$ 108,570).
Our nearest neighbors have excelled and deserve to be recognized for this offer.
This equates to 50 cents from every man woman and child.
To match this Australia would have to give $10.4 million dollars and New Zealand give $2.06 million and China $400 million.
Everyone seems to have missed the staggering size of this offer
This donation needs to be recognized.
Malo ‘au pito Tonga.
RIP Prof Epeli Hau’ofa – http://fijidailypost.com/news.php?section=1&fijidailynews=21483
A Tikong indeed. May scholars far and wide pause to remember a fine, upstanding, humble being who planted seeds of literary knowledge that has taken root and flourished all throughout the Pacific region.
